Update:

Hello Everyone, 

 Our family is reaching out with heavy hearts to ask for your support during this incredibly difficult time. On July 1, 2026, we unexpectedly lost my beloved sister, Amanda, at just 21 years old after battling a stroke. 

During her hospitalization, doctors discovered that Amanda had a rare blood clotting disorder, as well as a rare bacterial infection that ultimately caused her lungs and kidneys to fail. Despite everything she endured, Amanda fought with incredible strength and determination until the very end. While our hearts are broken by her loss, we find comfort in knowing that she is finally at peace with the Lord and is no longer suffering.

Above all, we ask for your prayers as our family navigates this unimaginable time. If you are able, we would be deeply grateful for any donation to help the costs of Amanda’s funeral and memorial expenses. If you are unable to give, please share this page and keep our family in your thoughts and prayers. Details regarding Amanda’s Celebration of Life will be shared as soon as they are available. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support during this difficult time.

Hello Everyone,

Our family is reaching out with heavy hearts to ask for support for my sister Amanda, after she recently suffered a stroke in the past 48 hours. What began as a normal day quickly turned into a life-changing medical emergency that none of us could have anticipated.

The stroke has left her facing a long and challenging road to recovery. In addition, doctors have also found a large mass on the back side of her heart. It is unknown whether this was the cause of her stoke, or just a coincidence. As we find answers, dealing with medical expenses, rehabilitation costs, and time away from work have become a burden. Everyday tasks that many of us take for granted have become difficult, and she is working hard every day to regain her strength and independence.

Throughout this difficult time, my sister has shown incredible courage and determination. She is surrounded by family and friends who love her deeply, but the financial burden of ongoing care and recovery is overwhelming.

We are asking for donations to help cover the burden that comes with recovering from a stroke. No amount is too small, and every contribution will make a meaningful difference.

If you are unable to donate, we would be incredibly grateful if you could share this fundraiser and keep my sister in your thoughts and prayers. Your kindness, support, and generosity mean more to us than words can express.

Thank you for standing with my sister Amanda as she fights toward recovery and a brighter future.
